Introduction: Contrast media (CM) possess both pro-thrombotic and anticoagulant properties. Here we investigate the effect of three classes of CM; Iohexol, Iodixanol and Ioxaglate, on thrombus formation and fibrinolysis in vitro and evaluated the contribution of platelets to this process.
Materials And Methods: Non-anticoagulated blood was mixed with CM or saline (50% or 20% (v/v)) for 1 min then citrated.
